Please e-mail us with your quantity requirements and for prices. Also
please do bear in mind that all deliveries are chargeable; the price depends
on your location. We can deliver any quantity of 10 or more sleepers.
Standard Sleepers - TR - The most popular and commonly used sleeper
by far. They are treated with creosote and are best applied wherever
longevity and durability are the key requirements. The creosote treatment
means the rules on the previous page apply at all times , but they are fine
for any and every other purpose. These are just about the best value-for-
money pieces of timber you will ever find.
Sleepers Reclaimed:
8ft 6” long (2.6m) x 10” wide (250mm) x 6” thick (150mm)
Redwood Sleepers - These are untreated reclaimed sleepers, made of
seasoned redwood (almost certainly Douglas fir) and are the best of both
worlds in sleeper terms: they look old and are full of character, but are
totally safe for use indoors, or in furniture or in children's play areas (see
main page ).
These will be durable for many years yet; the sap of Douglas Fir contains
chemicals that act as natural preservatives.
comes in random lengths up to 8ft - 8ft 4"
10” wide (250mm) 5” thick (125mm)
8ft 6” long (2.6m) 10” wide (250mm) 6” thick (150mm)
C Grade Sleepers - TR - When we buy such large
quantities of sleepers there are, of course, some that are
not up to standard. We do our best to remove these, and
we sell them at a lower price; these are our 2 nd grade
sleepers and they can be in a variety of conditions; ideal
for shed bases, hidden supports etc. where they cannot be
seen as they often don't match, but still provide strength
and durability
Crossing Timbers - TR - These are the longer sleepers that
come from underneath the merging `Points` on railway
lines and are longer in order to accommodate the extra
width of the track at these junctions.These are treated with
creosote and are often used to span bridges or gaps where a
continuous length over 8ft 6” is essential. Available in
lengths up to 12 feet, they are priced per foot.
9-12ft long (2.75m-3.66m) 10” wide (250mm) 6” thick (150mm)
We also have larger untreated sleepers which are rather
unusual; they are the same size as the standard sleepers and
they are just as tough.
With almost the same level of durability they are ideal for
maintaining a natural appearance while also being untreated
they are safe to use inside buildings and in playgrounds.
The wood, as seen here, is a rich red colour and these can
often be used to make fantastic furniture.
